Mr. L. M. Lucas, 426 West Arch Street, Portland, Indiana.
Dear Sir:
You are advised that photostatic copies of papers on file in Revolutionary War claim of John Fitsimmins (S.13023) will be furnished you at the rate of fifteen cents a page.
The number of pages to be copied is ten.
If you desire to have them certified allow twenty-five cents additional for the set.
The proper amount should be forwarded to this bureau by money order drawn to the order of the Acting Commissioner of Pensions.
The above named John Fitsimmins was of Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, during the Revolution and was pensioned while living in Tioga County, New York.
The report of the Secretary of War in regard to the Pension Establishment of the United States, printed in 1835, shows the name of one John Fitzimmons on a list of Invalid Pensioners who had been in receipt of pensions at the agency of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on account of disability incurred in service in the Revolutionary Army and whose residences could not be ascertained because of the destruction of papers in their applications, when the War Office was burned in 1800 and in 1814. He appears on that report as a private, pensioned under the Act of June 7, 1785, died February 1, 1798.
There are no further data in regard to his service and none whatever in regard to his family, in consequence of destruction of papers as stated above.
SEE LETTER IN JOHN FITSIMMINS, S.13023.
